A word from Kristi, the 'Holmes and Watson' costume creator:

I created these old school detective costumes for my son Silas and my dog Milo. They were pretty cheap to make. I just had to pay for the fabric and a few details, such as a magnifying glass, wing tip shoes and a pocket watch. I created the cape with a template and the hat took some time to figure out, but once I accomplished one the other was only a matter of sizing. My son loved being Sherlock Holmes and Milo, our hound, made a perfect Watson!
